OAP looking for a new car with easy access

I am an old age pensioner and I want to replace my Renault Vel Satis. I am over six foot in height and have had both hips replaced, so my next car must have easy access. I have £17,500 to spend and am open to buying new or second hand.

Buying new or used, I would recommend a Ford S-Max or Galaxy. Presumably you want an automatic gearbox, if not, add Mazda 5 TS2 to the list.
